What is the solution to the compound inequality in interval notation?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the word "or", this is a disjunction, or a union of all the solutions to the inequality as they present on a number line.

For the first inequality:

4(x + 1) > -4 we distribute through the parenthesis to get

4x + 4 > -4 and subtract 4 from both sides to get

4x > -8 and then divide both sides by 4 to get

x > -2. That will be graphed on a number line with an open hole over the -2 and the arrow will go to the right where the numbers are bigger than -2. This arrow continues into positive infinity.

For the other inequality:

2x - 4 ≤ -10 we add 4 to both sides to get

2x ≤ -6 and then divide by 2 to get

x ≤ -3. That is a closed hole over -3 and the arrow goes to negative infinity (to the left). Since one arrow goes off to the right forever, and the other arrow goes off to the left forever, and the arrows do not intersect at any point, the interval notation answer is

(-∞, -3] or (-2, ∞). The parenthesis mean that the number following it is not included (you can't include infinity, either negative or positive, because it's not actually a number) and the brackets mean that the number following it IS included. The hole is closed over the -3 so -3 is included in the solution, where the hole over the -2 is open and is not included.

hey, do any of you guys know how to plot functions on a graph. You know like f(X) and g(X)? I find it really hard and also do yo

Tpy6a [65]

It helps if you have an example, like f(x) = 2x+3
What you typically do, is:

- draw xy axis, label them (ie., 1,2,3,4 along both axes)
- calculate the f(x) values for several x (e.g., -2, 0, 1, 3, doesn't matter).
- plot the calculated values as points. The calculated f(x) is your y value.
- sketch a smooth line through the points. It helps if you know in advance if the line is going to be straight or curved.
- The more points you calculate, the more accurate your graph will be

Quadratic Equation

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of ages of two friends is 13 years.

The product of their ages is 42.

Let the age of 1st friend and 2nd friend is x, y respectively.

1 st condition= The sum of ages of two friends is 13 yrs.

i.e x+y = 13........ (I)

2nd condition= The product of their ages is 42.

i.e X*y = 42........(ii)

From equation (I)

X+y = 13

or, X = 13-y........ (iii)

Putting the equation (iii) in equation (ii).

X*y= 42

(13-y) * y = 42

13y - y^2 = 42

${y}^{2} - 13y + 42 = 0$

${y}^{2} - (7 + 6)y + 42= 0$

${y}^{2} - 7y - 6y + 42 = 0$

$y(y - 7) - 6(y - 7) = 0$

$(y - 6) (y - 7) = 0$

Either; y-6 = 0

y = 6

Or;

y-7=0

y = 7

Keeping the value of y as "7" in equation (ii)

x*y = 42

7x = 42

X = 42/7

Therefore, the value of X is 6.

Therefore, either 1st friend is 6 years and 2nd is 7 years.

Hope it helps...

There is 60% chance that it will rain today. If it rains, the probability of watching a movie is 0.5. But, if it does not rain t

agasfer [191]

Applying the given probabilities, it is found that there is a 0.42 = 42% probability of watching a movie today.

These following probabilities involve a movie being watched today:

0.5 of 0.6(if it rains today).

0.3 of 1 - 0.6 = 0.4(if it does not rain today).

Hence, adding them:

$p = 0.5(0.6) + 0.3(0.4) = 0.3 + 0.12 = 0.42$

0.42 = 42% probability of watching a movie today.
